Playing With the College Boys.


The Statesmen tOyed with the Williams College
team yesterday, and won by score Of 81 TO l.
During the first six innings the Williams were put
cut almost as fast as they came TO the bat. They
could not understand Shaw'S delivery. He occu-
pied the box throughout the game, and gave
ne exhibition OF his skill. His pertinent remarks
while making his bases were highly enjoyed by
the small crowd OF shiver1ng spectators The Ma
tionaS distinguished themselves by general good
play. kreig made the only clean home run hit of
the game, although two and three bases were CON-
worked well together. Wilson's fine pitching
was much commented upon by the audience.
With the\exception OF the battery the visitors
played poorly.
